The Earth's atmosphere consists primarily of oxygen (21%) 30 and nitrogen (78%). The rms speed of oxygen molecules (02) in the atmosphere at a certain location is 535 m/s.

(a) What is the temperature of the atmosphere at this location?

(b) Would the rms speed of nitrogen molecules (N2) at this location be higher, equal to, or lower than 535 m/s? Explain.

(c) Determine the rms speed of N2 at his location. 

1.5 m/s is a typical walking speed. At what temperature( in degrees Celsius) would nitrogen molecules have an rms speed of 1.5 m/s? Hint: the answer is suppose to be 2.5mK. Not sure how to get this answer.

The surface of the sun has a temperature of about 5800K and consists largely of hydrogen atoms.

Find the RMS speed of a hydrogen atom at this temperature. (The mass of a single hydrogen atom is 1.67x10−27kg.)
